Intelligent Planning for Large-Scale Multi-Agent Systems New Faculty Highlights Extended Abstract

The following article is an extended abstract submitted as part of AAAI's Faculty Highlights Program. This article summarizes the New Faculty Highlights talk with the same title at AAAI 2021. Intelligent agents such as different types of robots will soon become an integral part of our daily lives. In real-world multi-agent systems, the most fundamental challenges are assigning tasks to multiple agents and planning collision-free paths for the agents. This article surveys four directions of our research on using intelligent planning techniques for the above coordination problems.
